Linux on your Macbook - what works and what doesn't

Filed in archive Finding The Right Linux For You by Rom Feria on December 31, 2007

A friend of mine just got an office-issued black Macbook and he mentioned dual-booting it with Mac OS X and Ubuntu via ReFiT. Whilst there is nothing wrong doing it, I just do not see the point unless you really hate using the BSD-based Mac OS X and its eye-candy. Ironic, but Linux is being beefed up with more eye-candy as well.

Linux on your Macbook - what works and what doesn't

Anyway, if you have a Macbook and wish to run Ubuntu natively, you might want to check out these two documents. Remember that not all features are natively supported, specially if you have the latest Macbooks.

Again, I do not see the point when Linux runs just fast as a guest OS on vmware fusionlinks. Oh well, to each his own! :)
